Last Monday we were treated to a tour of the new pavilions opening at our Museum this Fall. At last, art made in Quebec and Canada over the centuries has a home where it can be appreciated and seen by all. In the Pavilion for Quebec and Canadian art CLAIRE and MARC BOURGIE you will see floor by floor the sweeping movements of creation for each generation until today, from INUIT Art to the era of the MANIFESTO. It is quite impressive to experience this extraordinary evolution in the renovated building of the former ERSKINE CHURCH. The tour then leads us to the magnificent Bourgie Concert Hall, seen above on the left. This room will host all types of musical events in an elegant and intimate atmosphere. Here you can experience the magic of the TIFFANY windows that were completely renovated for the new room.

The permanent Museum collection that boasts illustrious names like REMBRANDT, VERONESE, PICASSO, WARHOL and many others, has also been completely reorganized. The effect is that even paintings I was familiar with now have a fresh look. You must visit these treasures! They are offered to you free, all you need to do is walk in and admire the works of the worlds greatest masters!

Outside the Museum construction is still going on for what will be a most formidable Garden of Sculptures. Newest among them, L'OEIL from renowned Montreal artist DAVID ALTMEJD that you can see now.

Our tour ended in the Pavilion Liliane and David M. Stewart of Decorative Arts and Design, image on the right. It dazzles with color and forms from the modern to the historical, from lamps to jewelry.

Artistic Director JEANNOT PAINCHAUD is seen in the center of the photo with his troupe of artists and acrobats as they are getting ready to present RAIN-Comme une pluie dans les yeux, written and directed by DANIELE FINZI PASCA, in Montreal coming this December 6 2011 at the Monument-National. There is a video clip from the press conference attached below of a performance I found to be a moment of pure joy that day. The prices for a show are still comparatively low so you can afford to bring the whole family to this very special circus during this years Holiday Season.

RYAN GOSLING 's performance in this thriller is intense and captivating. The movie is very dark and the heartbeat effect of the soundtrack is immensely effective. The violence is shocking so be prepared! But I enjoyed the suspense a lot.

TSUI HARK directs this sumptuous movie, a tale of magic, politics, and intrigue. The style of the movie brings to life traditional Chinese art, the beauty and the subtle enchantment. The acting, done by TONY LEUNG KA FAI, CHAO DENG, CARINA LAU, BINGBING LI, ANDY LAU, to name a few, is masterful and precise. The choreography by SAMMO HUNG is spellbinding to say the least. The costumes and set took my breath away. To top it all off, the screenplay based on two real characters from history: Emperor WU ZE TIAN, the only female ruler of China, and Detective DEE: keeps you interested every step of the way. RUN don't walk to see this masterpiece.

At the same time you can admire the brilliant photographic exhibition Tibet: Land Of The Brave at CINEMA DU PARC.

This week GUY LALIBERTÉ , founder of the illustrious CIRQUE DU SOLEIL, took us with him on his journey through outer space with his deeply moving portraits of our planet Earth, GAÏA, now on display until October 10 in the Quartier des spectacles de Montréal. 60 large scale photos of the natural phenomenas occurring on our planet taken from the space shuttle will move you. We can witness in this exhibition the power, the mystery, and the fragility that holds our lives together, and that we have a tendency to take for granted.

GUY LALIBERTÉ revealed his passion to do all in his power to preserve our planet for his own children and for future generations. To this end much of the money made from the sales of the photographs, of the catalog, and from collaborations with special partners will be returned to foundations dedicated to help restore the ecology.

GUY LALIBERTÉ's foundation is ONE DROP and it is devoted to preserve fresh water for all the people of the world.

This Thursday September First I participated to the annual benefit of the VIP group in visual arts. As you can see from the pictures, a good time was had by all. You can come with friends. Get your hands dirty as you paint in a collective work and just be surprised by the creative atmosphere. The new season begins Thursday November 3 and the events happen every first Thursday of the month at Belmont sur le boulevard.
